✨ A hand made touch to one of the greatest gift inventions ever…. The gift card! 

  1. From card stock cut a rectangle 4 x 5.5”

  2. Glue (thinner) painted paper onto the front and back of the - make sure to glue well on the edges so they don’t lift up.
    Trim any overhanging paper back to the 4 x 5.5” rectangle.
  3. Let dry
  4. Optional: use a corner rounder to trim the top flap edges and / or a circle rounder to cut a notch out of the bottom flap to remove the gift card easier
  5. Fold at 1.25” and 3.75” to create envelope pouch
  6. Use a thin line of glue to adhere the bottom flap up to the middle section.
  7. Add some double sided tape to the flap and it’s signed 🖊️ sealed 🦭 delivered ✉️
